Summary:

These files were compiled from Census 2000 responses to the
long-form (sample) questions about where people worked. The files
present data at the county level for residents of the 50 states and
the District of Columbia. The residence file shows the number of
people who live in a county and the work destinations for the people
who live in each county. The work file shows the origins of the people
who work in each county.

When the Bureau of the Census reviewed the worker
flow files before release, some errors were discovered in a number of
the county-to-county flows. These errors have been corrected. However,
as a result of the corrections the data in these files may not agree
with data previously released in Summary File 3. In particular, there
may be differences in the number of people working in the state and/or
county of residence between SF3 and similar estimates derived from
these files.
